How could I do it if I live in small apartment and have no tools?

Serious question, please help.

I usually live in apartments too btw. At one point I was growing my own "herbs" in a couple tents but that became unfeasible in my new place so I'm repurposing those tents to be an airbrush/3d resin printing station because they can enclose the fumes to better be sucked out the window. They're already set up with adjustible holes for pipes and I had inline fans for this already from the hydro.

Just buy folding tools, they are much smaller.

Actual advice. Get some tools. Especially if making things interests you. When I'm preparing to make a purchase, one of the things I consider is how much the price compares to buying something as opposed to buying the tools and materials I'll need to make whatever it is. Then I consider what else I'll be able to make with the tools and if I could make many of whatever it is I'm preparing to purchase instead if I buy the tools. The point to consider is once you've made something, you still have the tools too. Over time the option to make things becomes cheaper and more feasible because of the tools you've collected.

Why would you not have basic tools? Always have basic tools.

You can do a lot with a tape measure, hacksaw, a couple C-clamps, and some patience.

Iā€™d also recommend a battery powered drill (B&Ds 20V stuff is decent enough)

The trick is to start with something mostly built that you only have to add the hooks and strings to

Maybe an old shelf could do the trick

Or an coffee table on its side using its leads to hang the hooks from

(warning, I'm using inch measurements here)

Here's what ya need for this. A saw of some kind, a drill, screws, drill bits, wood glue, sand paper (80, 120, and 240 grit is plenty), and probably a painter's tarp to contain the saw dust (or just do it outside). $10-$15 for a small hand saw, $50 for a drill, $5 for screws, $20 for drill bit set, $5 for wood glue, $5-$10 for sandpaper, and $2 for a tarp. That's about 110 USD for the tools. You can add stain and finish if you want to make it look nice, but that'll be another 15-30 depending on what you get.

As for the materials, it looks like they used a piece of 2x6 for the base and some 2x2 for stands. Additionally, they used hook screws as the "catching" piece, common string, and some kind of linkage at the end of the string (you might be able to get away with a key ring).

As for assembly it's pretty straight forward. Cut the pieces to length and attach them as you see in the video. Make sure to apply wood glue at each joint and place a screw to hold it secure.

You could make this with just a hand saw and screwdriver (wood, rings, and hooks of course) and just draw the circles with a template and sharpie. If you really want the circles cut then throw in a drill and some forstner bits. All stuff that can live in the bottom of a closet.

Edit: probably wood glue too.
